Lebni entertain you

Little bird and I did a little shopping at a few of the local stores and after shoes, clothes and wine purchases I showed her our best kept secret the Valley Produce Market. This wonder store is an ethnic market with so many different cultures recognized it would be hard to list.

What she introduced me to was Kefir cheese, also known as Lebni, which is made from yogurt with the whey removed. It has the consistency of cream cheese with less fat and salt and a slightly tangy flavor. She sprinkled some oregano and smoked paprika over and then drizzled olive oil. We had it on flax flat bread which we also bought at the market.

On the left is some hummus that she also fixed and to that she added some smoked garlic. Both of these snacks were well received by her dad, then we all had a nap. Great Sunday.
